Street Fighter... with a mouse?

This is quite possibly the worst idea I've ever heard.

Street Fighter Online ... with mouse controls

Japanese publisher Daletto, owned by Capcom and Games Arena, have announced (via IGN) Street Fighter Online: Mouse Generation. The PC title will have you control your characters completely via the mouse: sliding left and right moves the character, slide up jumps and left- and right-clicks give different attacks. Special moves, as you may guess, come via making combinations of slides and clicks. There will be community features based around fighting online.

What also makes the game unique and bizarre (aside from the random cat in the above picture - perhaps it's omnipotent) is the ability to interchange body parts on your character. The game is reportedly about fighting Revoltech toys, which is a line of actual toys planned to be sold alongside the game. As IGN predicts, you could have the head and torso of Chun-Li, the arms of Zangief and the legs of Ryu (the gender identity issues are plentiful).

The game is expected to go into beta February or March, with full service coming in April. No word on a version for non-Japanese gamers.

Cam whore support, I'm guessing. All cats are total cam whores.

So what are they saying the dialog bubbles in the screen cap?

I would only play this if I didn't have to pay for it. Yikes.

That cat needs a new game, then. It's been far too long.

Buddy was second-term, IIRC?

He gives them the Evil Laser Stare of Ridiculous Damage. The cat's eyes change colors and when they match- it's time to use the sidestep special move to GTFO of the way. :lol:

This looks like a LamePro joke.

Some of IGN's SFO images have a weirdass mixed-up character in them. This could come in 2nd to Pulirula in the race for World's Weirdest Game.

What games do you imagine have not been made on a PC of some sort?

nothing i'm saying isn't going to happen, about 90 percent of the people who are going to buy this game are going to buy it on 360/PS3, I know the demo version they let the guys from 1up play was on the PC, but making a sole product on the PC is just not economical to me.

1. Its a game designed to be played with a MOUSE

2. It is economical, because this seems to be a low budget/niche endeavor, and PCs have always been the best/only option for that.

3. Its a game designed to be played with a MOUSE

4. Capcom releases the majority of their games on PC, so their association with this game makes it even more expected.

5. 90% of the people who are going to play this game are Japanese, so stop thinking in terms of the western pc gaming market.

6. Shut up.

He's blind and uses a computer program to read the words. And by using the I tag instead of em tag he cannot hear your italicized words! EM TAGS DON'T WORK ON BB :(
